What is a Near Miss Checklist?
Certainty Software’s Near Miss Checklist is effective during an incident investigation after a narrowly avoided, or ‘near miss’ event occurs. Near miss events are qualified as ones that could have caused injury, illness, or death to a person, or property damage. This information can be used to prevent similar and potentially more serious accidents from happening again and to raise risk awareness within an organization.
Safety officers using this checklist can quickly identify the key pieces of information necessary for near miss reporting. Ultimately, using this checklist helps to better identify root causes and subsequently develop corrective actions that will prevent similar and potential hazards from happening again and raise risk awareness within an organization.
